Some really great progress made, Brian @f-104nut
Work on both planes is proceeding well, Brian (@fi104nut). I really like the contrast in layout and colors between the two cockpits. Nice weathering on the cockpits.
Making some progress on the Razorback . Finally got the fuseloge closed up. Bottom wing inserts glued and holes drilled for wing pylons . Landing gear cleaned up and ready for paint ,

Great preperation work, Brain @f-104nut Tamiya did some great engineering on the coolers, from experience I can say that their fitting is also excellent.
Quite a high number of parts, my friend @f-104nut! Great job!
Main wings and tail wings joned on the fuseloge . Also started sanding the airframe with the 2000 grit Tamiya snading spong in preperation for the metal paints . Still plenty more work to do .

Just jumped on to your work in progress, Brian, nice choice of models as both are great kits. Your progress is looking great, funny thing is I'm currently doing a P-47 using the ThunderCal decals. I've used some of Norris' decals before and they are great to work with, no issues at all. I'm doing Butter Bean II and looking forward to seeing both of yours completed.
Nicely prepared, Brian @f-104nut

The engine looks superb, my friend @f-104nut! Great pitot tube!
Greetings, Brian @f-104nut. I just stumbled across your current build thread. Two great kits! Good call on the markings too. The 38 with Bugs is priceless. Master Model brass pitots and gun barrels never disappoint and can really save the day.. Your Jug is off to a great start!
